Tonight they had burritos and I had a taco salad, because at this point in the month I always crave taco salad. I guess for other women it's chocolate. (shrug)
Tomorrow it is pork sate with peanut sauce, with jasmine rice and Thai spinach. The pork is already cut and frozen in marinade; I just have to grill the pork, boil the marinade, and make the spinach and warm up the rice. Easy easy.1 -
OMG I can't believe with all the Biscoff spreads that are about now it never occured to me to make my own cookie butter. I ❤ amaretti biscuits, so decided to make some Amaretti Biscuit Spread (Butter, Condensed Milk, Evaporated Milk & any kind of cookie).
As they're super sweet you don't need too much of it, a spoonful comes in around 100 cals. I stirred some into some Greek Yoghurt earlier with some fresh strawberries for dessert and it was delicious.2 -
We are having homemade chili and it smells wonderful!4

Under sauces. Made a spicy tomato ariabbatta- type sauce & did courgetti for the first time!

Grilled New York Strip, Grilled Asparagus, Grilled Lobster.
(a repost from the Daily Low Carb forum I usually plaster my food.
I have to say I love cooking this exact combo... I just lay the asparagus out on a sheet of foil, use a brush to lay some melted butter on them... Salt pepper.
Then I cut the back out of the lobster, and pull the tail out, brush it with avocado oil and again salt and pepper. Pop them back in the shell and seal them up in a foil pouch.
Prepare the steaks with all the that fine seasoning...
Heat the BBQ up to 500-550 or so... Then everything goes on once and it's all ready in 10 minutes flat.
Basically lay the sheet of asparagus open and flat on one side of the BBQ. position your steaks on the other side, and throw the pouch of tails on. Close it. 5 minutes later open it roll the asparagus around, flip the steaks and flip the tails. 4 minutes later every thing is done. Tails or moist and perfect, steak is usually medium rare depending on thickness, and well just look at those tasty asparagus.
But I should note, I actually started the asparagus about 5 minutes ahead this time as they were quite a bit thicker then usual.
And the added bonus, almost no dishes were dirtied in the cooking of this fine meal.3 -
Avocado pesto linguini for dinner tonight. It's creamy and comforting and so filling it's difficult to eat more than one serving!2

This looks delicious!....yes, you can share any meal here....send me a dozen of those roll ups!3 -
Made a big batch of "breakfast" daal yesterday. Yellow lentils, lots of spinach and pumpkin - which I've never cooked with before this month and it is nice and light. This feels nice and satisfying - put a whole stack of single servings in the freezer and just had some with scrambled eggs and rutabaga (they were on sale - nice little baby ones - but I had to buy a whole bag so I'll be having rutabaga with everything for awhile.
It was a very "yellow" brunch. But feels very nice in the belly :-)
It is very strange not tracking calorie right now. I know this meal is okay...oodles of veggies so I'm full while staying on the lower end of the calorie spectrum - but it feels pretty luxurious not trying to figure out exactly how much of each odd ingredient was on my plate.

I am making Shepherds Pie for dinner and I have to say it looks amazing!....I used Bob Evans mashed potatoes, mixed frozen vegetables, diced onions, Heinz Beef gravy, lean ground beef and a few basic seasonings.....I have these really cute little Ree Drummond ( Pioneer Woman ) metal crocks to bake them in....can’t wait for John to get home from the Pain Management doctor so I can eat!3

Prefer a Shepherds Pie to a Cottage Pie! I put my veggies inside too!4

Tonight I will be making Alice Springs Chicken. So chicken breasts marinated in honey mustard and then topped with mushrooms, bacon, and cheese. I keep the calories down by splitting the breast in half, limiting the bacon and cheese, and increasing the mushrooms. I will be serving it with roasted asparagus and half a baked potato with butter and sour cream.4
